Please save your time and money, do not attend IWU. The school and their online program is a joke. I have been a student at another university, in their adult student program for years and NEVER had the problems I had with IWU in two months. The first red flag should have been when I had customer service reps from India calling my cell phone several times a week to check on how my school experience was going. This seemed extremely odd to me. As far as the education goes, there is none. They want you to jump through hoops and pay a ridiculous amount of money OUT OF POCKET to get enrolled and get your transcripts posted. As far as the online format, it is 90% busy work. Never once did I get the impression IWU cared about providing a respectable education. I should have listened to my handful of friends who had similar experiences at IWU and later successfully graduated from local universities. But I was sucked in, thinking the online program would be more flexible with my work/family schedule. Now, they are telling me they hadn't processed my student loans yet and therefore will not apply them to my withdrawn class. I have a balance of $2,500 from the class that I withdrew from week one. And I will have to pay that out of pocket before they even release my transcipts to my previous university that I have gladly ran back to. Lesson learned, the grass is certainly not greener on the other side. Indiana Wesleyan University needs to live up to their supposed Christian values and get on board with the other adult programs offered in the Indianapolis area, rather than acting as a profit-driven business. Boy do I regret making that transfer to IWU!! Other universities to consider include: Franklin University, University of Indianapolis, Marian University just to name a few.
